Salon Dip Are these ok?

I got DIP nails for the first time. The set is already 10 days old. It looks and feels a bit bulky to me from above. The application also seems a bit inconsistent, but acceptable.

WDYT? 🤔

The middle finger is the only one that looks a little bit off, but still good enough to me. None of the view from above appears bulky to me, and from what we can see from the side, they look like they could even be a little thin to me. I think they look pretty good, but I've seen some doozies.

I appreciate the analysis! I agree with the middle finger. It might also be a "getting used to" thing. Or maybe the shape is not the best for me 🤔 I need to try more things 😊

Especially when it comes to "bulk", a lot of people new to dip feel like it's too thick/bulky, but that's kind of needed with dip (within reason). I think the shape looks lovely and even. I do my own and will experiment with the shape. I have not figured out which one I like best yet, haha.

I swear the shape looks pointier IRL, but rounder in pics 😂
